I wonder why the company making the device hasn't published the validation studies they claim they've done. They would make insane profit if they could prove that the device is accurate.

A friend and coworker who is also an herbalist had this to recently share about doing an Oligoscan for someone who came into our wellness center

“2 weeks ago I saw a client for a mini consult after based on our chat I suggested an Oligoscan, and asked him to get his blood type. I also directed him to some Awaken Greens, Bio-Optimizers Magnesium and MassZymes, gave some lifestyle suggestions and suggested he observe any changes over the next two weeks and then we would proceed with the Oligoscan.

Today I saw him for the Oligoscan and consult; already he reported better digestion and increased energy from the supplements suggested.

Today we gained a lot more insight with the Oligoscan! I then suggested and he purchased Megahydrate, ZeoCharge, and Iodine, Vit d3/k2, and Zinc.

He also wanted another bag of Awaken greens because he is wanting to increase his intake because he is feeling so good on them! 🙂

Today after the Oligoscan he had a sauna red light session. I also mentioned the floats and various massage therapists to address some inflammation and pain relief.

Overall a very happy new client who is already feeling benefits.”

The company behind Oligoscan, Physioquanta, claims their spectrophotometer—which measures trace elements and heavy metals in tissue via the skin—has been validated through internal studies and comparative tests.

Their websites often mention “a set of tests and comparative studies” showing correlations with lab results and clinical symptoms, but they don’t provide specifics like study designs, sample sizes, or peer-reviewed publications.

Reliable, non-invasive tech like this could indeed be a goldmine if proven effective.

So, what studies do they actually point to? Oligoscan’s official sites (like oligoscan.fr or oligoscan.net) don’t list concrete, accessible studies.

They reference a bibliography—35 articles, according to some critiques—and these are discussing heavy metal risks or mineral content in food, and none seem to directly test Oligoscan’s claims about real-time tissue analysis through the palm.

Spectroscopy is legit—used in chemistry and medicine for decades.

I work at a wellness center and have done scans and consultations for detoxifying heavy metals, nutrition balance, and balancing mineral ratios. After someone detoxes via sauna, zeolite or other detox protocols and they dial in their vitamin or mineral deficiencies or imbalances their second scan reads more balanced.
